I was excited to see this new bird for me today.  Listed as common but like many "common" birds in Hong Kong, not often seen apparently. Neil.

Lamma Island,
Hong Kong,
China.

'Common' as used in the Avifauna and almost all other bird books means 'common in appropriate habitat at the appropriate time of year'.

I can well imagine that this species is not common on Lamma, as there is so little mature shrubland.
